Via The DrudgeReport, people are actually challenging the fact that Rahm Emanuel lived in Chicago these past two years even though he didn't actually live in Chicago these past two years. Yeah, I know, crazy. It seems that to be the mayor of Chicago you have to actually live there, and also prove that you've lived there for a year. In most places you would think the answer to the question, "Where has the President's chief of staff, who has lived in Washington D.C. these past two years, lived these past two years?" With the answer being, "Not Chicago". But, this is Chicago. What Rahm Emanuel is saying is that even though everyone knew he was in Washington D.C., he was simultaneously living in Chicago. It's like quantum mechanics, except instead of electrons, you have douchebags. Of course if Chicagoans really do buy this lode of squirrel leavin's (keeping in mind Rahm's ability to bend facts, threaten people with dead fish and the media's sychophantic loyalty to him), he's pretty much Chicago's mayor already. Because if he can argue that he was in two places at once and win, are you really going to argue that he didn't win the election even though he didn't get the most votes?

Did you see the news about the cars that drive themselves? Weren't we supposed to have these like in the sixties, along with jetpacks and food in pill form. And also monkey butlers. Technology was supposed to make our lives easier and jobs that don't require any intelligence or reason were supposed to be handled by cool looking robots with flashing lights. Which is why I also thought that we would have had robot politicians by now. Just in case robot designers need a helping hand, I've written a basic program that easily handles all the Constitutionally-appointed responsibilities of your typical congressman and/or senator.

What's that old line, fool me once shame on you, fool me twice...or is that three times? Anyways, at this point, the question isn't, "What will Obama do to help the economy?", it is, "What else will Obama be working on instead of the economy?" And even though I feel worse, economically-speaking, this year as compared to last year, Obama says the economy has been fine since he magically fixed it. But I guess that's obvious, isn't it?

We all know that because of September 11, we can't bring certain deadly, deadly items on planes anymore, like nailclippers, scissors, pocketknives or underwear, because terrorists have used those items attempting terrorist attacks. I can live with this, mostly because I don't have any choice in the matter. Which is the way Government likes it. They're not real big on whining or that silly Freedom of Speech crap that our uneducated Forefathers saddled them with. As our government continues to tell us, with infinite power comes infinite wisdom, so who am I to question what and why items are banned? But recently I was shopping on the internet for a present for my nephew, when I noticed this warning in the shipping section of the order form.

Wow, what a petulant stupid jerk. As someone on another blog said, he looks like he's about a second away from stamping his feet and holding his breath because he's not getting his way. Nice job electing this guy, New York. No, I'm being serious. Because every day this guy is in Washington, that's another day where there's one less a-hole in New York.

"It used to be Phoenix and L.A. and New York and Boston and New York or Philly or somebody on the East Coast,'' Jackson, speaking before Tuesday's game against Milwaukee at the Staples Center, said of the once much more reduced NBA schedule on Christmas. " Now, I see they have like six games (actually, five) on Christmas. It's like Christian holidays don't mean anything to (the NBA) anymore. You just go out and play and entertain (on) TV. It's really weird.''

That's twice in the same year that I've agreed with Phil Jackson. I may need to start drinking less. Or more.

p.s. And when did Yahoo Sports get taken over by such huge douchebags?
